cytopix 0.2.0

GUI for pixel-based manual segmentation of DC images

CytoPix is a graphical user interface for manually segmenting deformability cytometry (DC) images. The mask data (labeled images) can be used for training machine-learning based segmentation algorithms and are also generally useful for benchmarking segmentation algorithms.

Documentation

The documentation is available at cytopix.readthedocs.io.

Installation

Installers for Windows and macOS are available at the release page.

If you have Python installed, you can install CytoPix from PyPI

# graphical user interface
